Without the academy the brief absence from finals that we experienced could well have been more akin to the post Edelstun apocalypse. I think it that important.
Dont agree one bit . Academy has given us some good talent , Mills , Gulden, Heeney , Campbel , Blakey . We had to give up draft picks to get them , Look at all the talent we 've drafted outside the academy , Jmac, Chad, Mccartin, Papley , Dawson, McDonald , Hayward , Stephens , Florent . Every pick we have to give up for academy bids is one we could 've used to find other talents like that .Itis a double edged sword .
